[1]Also, thou sonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012[H8734] unto the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559[H8804], Ye mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, hearH8085[H8798] the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068:
[2]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; Because the enemyH341[H8802] hath saidH559[H8804] against you, AhaH1889, even the ancientH5769 high placesH1116 are ours in possessionH4181:
[3]Therefore prophesyH5012[H8734] and sayH559[H8804], Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; Because they have made you desolateH8074[H8800], and swallowed you upH7602[H8800] on every sideH5439, that ye might be a possessionH4181 unto the residueH7611 of the heathenH1471, and ye are taken upH5927[H8735] in the lipsH8193 of talkersH3956, and are an infamyH1681 of the peopleH5971:
[4]Therefore, ye mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, hearH8085[H8798] the wordH1697 of the LordH136 GODH3069; Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069 to the mountainsH2022, and to the hillsH1389, to the riversH650, and to the valleysH1516, to the desolateH8074[H8802] wastesH2723, and to the citiesH5892 that are forsakenH5800[H8737], which became a preyH957 and derisionH3933 to the residueH7611 of the heathenH1471 that are round aboutH5439;
[5]Therefore thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; Surely in the fireH784 of my jealousyH7068 have I spokenH1696[H8765] against the residueH7611 of the heathenH1471, and against all IdumeaH123, which have appointedH5414[H8804] my landH776 into their possessionH4181 with the joyH8057 of all their heartH3824, with despitefulH7589 mindsH5315, to cast it outH4054 for a preyH957.
[6]ProphesyH5012[H8734] therefore concerning the landH127 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559[H8804] unto the mountainsH2022, and to the hillsH1389, to the riversH650, and to the valleysH1516, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I have spokenH1696[H8765] in my jealousyH7068 and in my furyH2534, because ye have borneH5375[H8804] the shameH3639 of the heathenH1471:
[7]Therefore thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; I have lifted upH5375[H8804] mine handH3027, Surely the heathenH1471 that are aboutH5439 you, they shall bearH5375[H8799] their shameH3639.
[8]But ye, O mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, ye shall shoot forthH5414[H8799] your branchesH6057, and yieldH5375[H8799] your fruitH6529 to my peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478; for they are at handH7126[H8765] to comeH935.[H8800]
[9]For, behold, I am for you, and I will turnH6437[H8804] unto you, and ye shall be tilledH5647[H8738] and sownH2232:[H8738]
[10]And I will multiplyH7235[H8689] menH120 upon you, all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, even all of it: and the citiesH5892 shall be inhabitedH3427[H8738], and the wastesH2723 shall be buildedH1129:[H8735]
[11]And I will multiplyH7235[H8689] upon you manH120 and beastH929; and they shall increaseH7235[H8804] and bring fruitH6509[H8804]: and I will settleH3427[H8689] you after your old estatesH6927, and will do betterH2895[H8689] unto you than at your beginningsH7221: and ye shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068.
[12]Yea, I will cause menH120 to walkH3212[H8689] upon you, even my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; and they shall possessH3423[H8804] thee, and thou shalt be their inheritanceH5159, and thou shalt no moreH3254[H8686] henceforth bereaveH7921 them of menH8763.
[13]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; Because they sayH559[H8802] unto you, Thou land devourest upH398[H8802] menH120, and hast bereavedH7921[H8764] thy nationsH1471;
[14]Therefore thou shalt devourH398[H8799] menH120 no more, neither bereaveH7921[H8762][H3782][H8762] thy nationsH1471 any more, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069.
[15]Neither will I cause men to hearH8085[H8686] in thee the shameH3639 of the heathenH1471 any more, neither shalt thou bearH5375[H8799] the reproachH2781 of the peopleH5971 any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nationsH1471 to fallH3782[H8686] any more, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069.
[16]Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,[H8800]
[17]SonH1121 of manH120, when the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 dweltH3427[H8802] in their own landH127, they defiledH2930[H8762] it by their own wayH1870 and by their doingsH5949: their wayH1870 was beforeH6440 me as the uncleannessH2932 of a removed womanH5079.
[18]Wherefore I pouredH8210[H8799] my furyH2534 upon them for the bloodH1818 that they had shedH8210[H8804] upon the landH776, and for their idolsH1544 wherewith they had pollutedH2930 itH8765:
[19]And I scatteredH6327[H8686] them among the heathenH1471, and they were dispersedH2219[H8735] through the countriesH776: according to their wayH1870 and according to their doingsH5949 I judgedH8199 themH8804.
[20]And when they enteredH935[H8799] unto the heathenH1471, whither they wentH935[H8804], they profanedH2490[H8762] my holyH6944 nameH8034, when they saidH559[H8800] to them, These are the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068, and are gone forthH3318[H8804] out of his landH776.
[21]But I had pityH2550[H8799] for mine holyH6944 nameH8034, which the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 had profanedH2490[H8765] among the heathenH1471, whither they wentH935.[H8804]
[22]Therefore sayH559[H8798] unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; I doH6213[H8802] not this for your sakes, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, but for mine holyH6944 name'sH8034 sake, which ye have profanedH2490[H8765] among the heathenH1471, whither ye wentH935.[H8804]
[23]And I will sanctifyH6942[H8765] my greatH1419 nameH8034, which was profanedH2490[H8794] among the heathenH1471, which ye have profanedH2490[H8765] in the midstH8432 of them; and the heathenH1471 shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069, when I shall be sanctifiedH6942[H8736] in you before their eyesH5869.
[24]For I will takeH3947[H8804] you from amongH4480 the heathenH1471, and gatherH6908[H8765] you out of all countriesH776, and will bringH935[H8689] you into your own landH127.
[25]Then will I sprinkleH2236[H8804] cleanH2889 waterH4325 upon you, and ye shall be cleanH2891[H8804]: from all your filthinessH2932, and from all your idolsH1544, will I cleanseH2891 youH8762.
[26]A newH2319 heartH3820 also will I giveH5414[H8804] you, and a newH2319 spiritH7307 will I putH5414[H8799] withinH7130 you: and I will take awayH5493[H8689] the stonyH68 heartH3820 out of your fleshH1320, and I will giveH5414[H8804] you an heartH3820 of fleshH1320.
[27]And I will putH5414[H8799] my spiritH7307 withinH7130 you, and causeH6213[H8804] you to walkH3212[H8799] in my statutesH2706, and ye shall keepH8104[H8799] my judgmentsH4941, and doH6213 themH8804.
[28]And ye shall dwellH3427[H8804] in the landH776 that I gaveH5414[H8804] to your fathersH1; and ye shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be your GodH430.
[29]I will also saveH3467[H8689] you from all your uncleannessesH2932: and I will callH7121[H8804] for the cornH1715, and will increaseH7235[H8689] it, and layH5414[H8799] no famine upon youH7458.
[30]And I will multiplyH7235[H8689] the fruitH6529 of the treeH6086, and the increaseH8570 of the fieldH7704, that ye shall receiveH3947[H8799] no more reproachH2781 of famineH7458 among the heathenH1471.
[31]Then shall ye rememberH2142[H8804] your own evilH7451 waysH1870, and your doingsH4611 that were not goodH2896, and shall lotheH6962[H8738] yourselves in your own sightH6440 for your iniquitiesH5771 and for your abominationsH8441.
[32]Not for your sakes doH6213[H8802] I this, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069, be it knownH3045[H8735] unto you: be ashamedH954[H8798] and confoundedH3637[H8734] for your own waysH1870, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
[33]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; In the dayH3117 that I shall have cleansedH2891[H8763] you from all your iniquitiesH5771 I will also cause you to dwellH3427[H8689] in the citiesH5892, and the wastesH2723 shall be buildedH1129.[H8738]
[34]And the desolateH8074[H8737] landH776 shall be tilledH5647[H8735], whereas it lay desolateH8077 in the sightH5869 of all that passed byH5674.[H8802]
[35]And they shall sayH559[H8804], ThisH1977 landH776 that was desolateH8074[H8737] is become like the gardenH1588 of EdenH5731; and the wasteH2720 and desolateH8074[H8737] and ruinedH2040[H8737] citiesH5892 are become fencedH1219[H8803], and are inhabitedH3427.[H8804]
[36]Then the heathenH1471 that are leftH7604[H8735] round aboutH5439 you shall knowH3045[H8804] that I the LORDH3068 buildH1129[H8804] the ruinedH2040[H8737] places, and plantH5193[H8804] that that was desolateH8074[H8737]: I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696[H8765] it, and I will doH6213 itH8804.
[37]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; I will yet for this be enquiredH1875[H8735] of by the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, to doH6213[H8800] it for them; I will increaseH7235[H8686] them with menH120 like a flockH6629.
[38]As the holyH6944 flockH6629, as the flockH6629 of JerusalemH3389 in her solemn feastsH4150; so shall the wasteH2720 citiesH5892 be filledH4392 with flocksH6629 of menH120: and they shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068.
